A Blog designed for discussion of topics related to, but not limited to, Circus, Zoos, Animal Training, and Animal Welfare/Husbandry. Sometimes opening up the dialog is the best starting point of all. And if for nothing else when people who agree and don't agree, get together and start discussing it, it will open up a lot of peoples minds. Debate and discussion even amongst themselves opens a window where there wasn't one before.
This is the former John Robinson (1929-30)and Hagenbeck Wallace (1932-37) hippo den. It went to Cole in 1940 from RBBB/Peru after Cole's Rochester WQ fire - -Richard Reynolds
Wade- This wagon actually started out on the John Robinson Circus about 1929. It was #30 on that show. After Robinson closed it was put on Hagenbeck-Wallace for 1931 thru 1937. It sat at the ACC Farm 1938 & 1939. After the disastrous Rochester Winterquarters fire in February 1940 it was sold to Cole Bros. Circus, along with Chester (hippo) and assigned #19. FLINT
